Clinicopathological Assesment in Patients with Enterobius vermicularis Infection
CONCLUSION: Enterobiasis is a common parasite especially in children. Rarely, it can be seen in patients with acute appendicitis. Histopathological evaluation is necessary to ensure a safe surgical procedure and to complete the treatment with anthelmintic drugs. Enterobiasis should be kept in mind in cases when the acute phase response is lower than expected.PMID:37249112 | DOI:10.4274/tpd.galenos.2023.02418 (Source: Turkish Society for Parasitology)

Eosinophilia and potential antibody cross-reactivity between parasites in a child with pinworm and immune dysregulation: a case report
Intestinal parasitic infections are common in humans, especially among young children. These conditions are often asymptomatic and self-limiting, and diagnosis is mainly based on the search for ova and parasit... (Source: BMC Pediatrics)

Detection of Enterobius vermicularis in archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) appendectomy blocks: It ’s potential to compare genetic variations based on mitochondrial DNA ( cox 1) gene
In this study, the morphological characteristics of the remnant pinworms and pathologic changes were explored in old-archived FFPE tissues of appendectomies. Moreover, we provide the first molecular identification, genetic, and haplotype variation of this nematode from the old-archived FFPE tissue section of appendectomy using the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene. Seventeen FFPE appendectomies withE.vermicularis infection, stored over 12 –22 years, were collected from two different geographical areas of Iran. In the histopathological examination, tissue changes were observed in thirteen cases (76....

Fenbendazole treatment against Dentostomella translucida in Syrian golden hamsters
Exp Parasitol. 2022 Dec 30:108458. doi: 10.1016/j.exppara.2022.108458. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDentostomella translucida is an oxyurid nematode that was first discovered in the Mongolian gerbil but has also been detected in other wild and housed rodents. In conventional laboratory animals, oxyurid nematode parasites are widespread infections. A proven treatment strategy for pinworm eradication is the oral application of benzimidazoles, such as fenbendazole. In general, this drug is regarded as safe with minimal side effects. Nevertheless, in Sprague Dawley rats, a significantly reduced litter size could be seen after...

The accuracy of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) in detecting human intestinal nematode infections: A protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis
The objective of this review is to determine the accuracy of NAATs in detecting human intestinal nematode infections using Kato-Katz as the reference test for the most common soil-transmitted helminth (STH) in fections and the scotch tape test for enterobiasis and Baermann method for strongyloidiasis. Relevant studies will be identified by searches in electronic databases. Two reviewers will independently screen the literature against eligibility criteria. The methodological quality of studies will then b e appraised by two reviewers using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) tool. Discrepancies...
